Backbone Cabling & Horizontal Cabling
The backbone cabling within the data center provides the critical connections between the entrance room, MDA and HDA. The backbone cabling in many of today’s data centers supports 10 Gigabit transmission speeds for current and future applications. The horizontal cabling within the data center provides the connection between the HDA and EDA and SAN, including the optional ZDA. Belden products for the backbone and horizontal cabling include:
